In the Texas/Mexico border, as soon as you cross into Mexico, there are tons of orthodontist offices because it is so much cheaper to do it in Mexico, so Texans drive to Mexico to do it and other dental work. It would be harder for to make the economic works for flying to Colombia. I have heard of people (in other contexts) going a long, long time between adjustments (like 6-12 months) but then obviously the overall treatment would take longer.
Need to get to MDE soon to check out the current braces scene, your post certainly makes me want to board a plane ASAP; I have been going to mainly Bogota recently.

In Colombia, I think you only need 4 year degree.
I have been a braces fetishist since before I became attracted to women, and Colombia is absolute heaven for me right now. Haven't been to Medellin in a couple of years but just got back from Bogota is absolutely slamming for women with braces, as well as Pereira, Manizales, etc.

Posts: 1013Does anybody know how much it costs to get braces in MDE? If 9 out of 10 girls (maybe I'm exaggerating!) has braces, it must be affordable!

Here is the name of a dentist I used in cartegna last week. Broke a filling and a local chica married to a gringo here took me him. Got me right in that morning and fixed me up 35mil.
He speaks no English but was very Happy with his work. He does do crowns and the like but not sure about implants and the like. I have a dentist in san jose CR I usually use for most things.
Consultorio Odontologico 24 hours
Dr Ariel Rocha Avendano
Cell 312- 797-6541
Found a hearing doctor in Boca Grande. Don't have her name and number in hand but you can drop me a message if you need it.
Top of the line Widex hearing aides are a little less then I could price in Fl. 5K here instaed of 6K in Fl. But the good news is medium range digital hearing aides of the same brand are less then half.
What was $1599 for one in Fl I got two here for $1450. God didn't really know how deaf I was till I got them. I have about 80% loss in left ear witch I knew but my right ear was allot worse then I had realized.
It has improved my Spanish allot already. With English the brain could fill in the missing sounds. With Spanish I was just screwed
Cheers

Urban Wildlife,
Check out Pilar Ordonez. She is located in Bocagrande in Edificio Portofino, Cra10. She speaks very good englidh and her prices are very reasonable. I had implants done by her in 2007 and the work was excellent. In gact you might be able to rent an apartment in the same building as I did. Call her at 011576653444 and make an appointment. I hope this helps you out. I highly recommend her. Her brother has a successful pratice in Coral Gables, Fl.

I have used clinics in Bocagrande, Cartagena, and Laureles, Medellín, for over 5 years now. They take credit cards. You can most probably just walk in without an appointment.
